The Annual Masters Water-Ski & Wakeboard Tournament
May 25-27, 2012
It’s sun, fun and mega-excitement on Memorial Day weekend, when the world’s greatest water-skiers converge on beautiful Robin Lake for a weekend of intense competition to discover who is the best male and female water skier in the world. With more than $100,000 in prize money, the skiers are sure to put on quite a show in what has been considered the ultimate “pressure cooker” of all tournaments.
Formerly the Masters Water Ski Tournament®, in recent years this prestigious competition expanded to include the incredible sport of wakeboarding. Spectators come early to claim their piece of the beach where they’ll soak up the rays and take in all the action.
The festival-like atmosphere at the Masters Water Ski & Wakeboard Tournament® includes a merchandise plaza on the beach featuring state-of-the-art water sports equipment and clothes. Dozens of manufacturers are represented including Masters’ sponsor, Nautique.
